Multi-subject Project Based Learning initiative

This paper presents the initiative aimed to increase the number of collaborative activities and the motivation of students for engineer topics. The work centers the attention on the design and definition of a PjBL (Project Based Learning) initiative covering three different subjects. The main goal of this work is to develop social and collaborative skills not only between the partners of the same subject, but also between students from different generations and courses. The work proposes a multi-subject PBL (Problem Based Learning) activity where expert members from different subjects train to students groups. The initiative, which is carried out in the last courses of an undergraduate program, has been well received by students with having a direct impact on their motivation. In any case, but some aspects need to be planned with more deeply: coordination between students from different subjects and impact of the student groups that do not finish the activity.
